BRO! I just moved to Tennessee a few months ago. When I started my new job they had a potluck for the birthdays of the month. I made crockpot pulled chicken using your recipe and I became the hero of the hospital! I directed everyone to your channel for the recipe, but they keep calling it MY bbq sauce. You have made me a hero. I keep trying to get them to check out your vids. Thank you Bro!
It's your sauce, most of us get our recipes from others anyway, then adapt them to our personal preferences if needed anyway. No biggie, you're genius enough to find out the right way 👍
Two things: 1. I rarely steal a recipe. 2. I've never paid for one. This sauce base,.... so so so good. I will confess I modified it a bit with fermented hot honey, fermented garlic cloves, and a cup of mango. But, the base. WOW!
My BBQ is similar, but I saute onions, garlic, and jalapenos at the beginning. I then add vinegar and blend. After that I add all the other ingredients. This way you have a smooth and dark sauce while incorporating all the veggies.
@@thatdudecancook Every BBQ sauce I've had tastes like one of two other BBQ sauces I've had. There are, apparently, at least in commercial production, only really two BBQ sauces on Earth. One is overly sweetened as if Pizza Hut sauce was its role model. The other is...Just pretty generic. Luckily I do mean to have ribs sometime soon so I can try this .
@@nyanuwu4209a friend attempted to have a sauce bottled commercially for a restaurant he ran so they could out bottles on the table. He told me when they scale thr recipe up, thr convert ingredients to whatever the bulk crap is and it's not the same thing so he abandoned it.
You grew up 10min away from me bro, I live in Santa rosa or used to.. thank yho for everything you do for us. I wa d achef for 20yrs or so and lost my passion but you and a few others have helped me get it back
I made this last night, and it is every bit as good as the recipe states. I did add a couple teaspoons of liquid smoke. A good blend of sweet and heat...and now smoke.
So glad I'm not the only on here who uses liquid smoke! Not every time I make sauce, of course, but sometimes I want that smoky flavor without all the hassle of firing up the grill outside. A couple drops in gravy, too, adds interesting undertones that go well with potatoes.
Shout out to a brother dude who saves glass containers! I've got tons of salsa glasses I use for ingredients, Mason jars I drink from, and juice bottles I put fresh-brewed tea and coffee in. The master strat!
A "brother dude" after my own heart (even tho' I'm not a dude😂)! Some bottles are just so beautiful to look at - real works of art! - that I just can't bring myself to throw them out! And others, yes, always promise to be useful again one day...and often are! My grown daughter and granddaughter often drink out of old mustard and mole jars, as do I (in fact I'm using one today because it has a handy little lid); and one that is still one of my favorites is a small glass jar with Winnie the Pooh pics all over it that used to contain jelly! I just wish they would stop making these jars so beautiful because I'm running out of room!
Oldest daughter(9) loves bbq pork chops, helps me grill and sauce them every time, this will just be another thing we can make together, thank you for this.
One thing to think about doing with the leftover bits is to flatten it out on some parchment paper, and dehydrate it and then grind it into some seasoning. And then you can use that seasoning on anything else. I did that with all the leftover bits from making birria after blending it and then running it through the sieve and it's amazing
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽This is my third batch and this time I’m doubling it! Our new family favorite and I love that I can control the quality of ingredients with no crazy additives! Thanks for sharing!
I literally have a little of this left in a jar in the fridge. I got the recipe from the meatloaf video. My only change is sub red wine vinegar for the apple cider and no chipotle. It reminds me of this sauce I used to get with homemade chicken fingers at this restaurant years ago. Ill be making this forever. Thanks for the recipe!!!
Chipotles can be pretty spicy for some people, but omitting them would leave out a bunch of the smoky flavor that makes bbq sauce taste the way it does. I wonder if adding smoked paprika would help to get it back?
@@briansmith8898 I forgot to say I added a few dashes of liquid smoke to make up for it. I also love chipotle and hot stuff...just not in my BBQ sauce :)
Made the bbq sauce today for tomorrow’s pulled pork. Really great! I put the onions and chipotle peppers in a pull chopper for relish. WOW!! Thanks. Love your show
This stuff is awesome! I made it but had to swap a few items due to gluten allergy. Swapped malt vinegar for more apple cider vinegar, soy sauce with temari, and dark brown suger with light brown sugar. I didn't need to swap the brown sugar. I just had some leftover. Choose to blend it for more heat, and it turned out great!
Also thank you for showing love for malt/acv vinegar. I absolutely hate that people use white vinegar for their recipes. Those vinegar have so much flavor
Hola Mr That Dude Can Cook, I made your recipé. I had to make 1 compromize as I wasn't able to find malt vinegar. Swapped it for a very expencive balsamico that was alot rounder in taste (used it before). And for some stupid reason, chipotle in adobo was not possoble to fin, either. As a replacement, I flambé'd 2 sweet paprikas and peeled + smoky paprika powder. I also decided to up the umami, so I added 2tbsp of MSG. I am just a home cook with love for food, and I love your channel. (I also made ur butter chickem with 0 compromizes, which tasted insanely good!!).

Thank you for posting this video and also explaining how one should think when cooking when it comes to sweet spicy sour, etc. As I was making your recipe, I was chowing down on fresh BC cherries. I decided to render a bunch with the onions. All the cherry juices infused within the onion and there was a bunch of cherry juice all left into the pan, so it all mixed up with the rest of the ingredients and it’s absolutely absolutely superb . Thank you, thank you thank you I will remember this whenever I cook from now on!
Maybe a food safety video. How and why can somethings last a long time in the fridge? How to properly check the pH to see if it's shelf stable... Bring it on
For many reasons, I found myself awake after a hard sleep at 2am watching this video and wondering... how good this could be? I was probably the only guy in North America brewing BBQ sauce while most everyone else was sleeping! I can't wait to try it tonight on some made-for-bbq-sauce BBQ! Keep rocking it Sonny!
This is why I have notifications on 🙌🏼 any chance we can get an official bolognese recipe - there seems to be a lot of variations online and ive tried a lot of them now. I would love to see your version ( done the Meatballs was a game changer 👍🏼) awesome videos as always.
I like using existing sauces and churching them up with different flavors. I start with a bottle of Austin's Own medium (green label). I put it in a pot and add 1/4 cup bourbon, 1/4 cup OJ and about 1/3 of a bunch of cilantro, chopped fine. Simmer for 20 mins, and you're all set.
The highlight of this recipe is the leftover onions!! Can’t express enough how good these are. I put them on homemade moose brats with a good stone ground mustard and it is next level . Thank you for such a great recipe.
Will definitely have to try this, though since I'm a capsaicin fiend that's less concerned with the color of the sauce I'll probably blend the peppers and onions into the final product. Do you also have a recipe for a mustard-based BBQ sauce?
Not bad. I will roast or smoke some of the veg prior, with a couple mushrooms for that size batch. Also one anchovy. Ups the umami and richness. I've also added caper brine, just a quarter teaspoon to a batch like this, as part of the vinegar. These subtle tweaks are how you can make it your own, take one of the ingredients and replace just part of it with something similar. The easiest is probably instead of a full onion, half an onion and two shallots. Halve the oil and use beef tallow. Halve the soy and use Worchestershire. You are the boss of your BBQ sauce.
Try Q39. Did a blind taste test with a large group of people trying everything from sweet to heat, vinegar based and smoky. Q39 was the perfect balance and had a perfect kiss of smoke that complimented bbq so well.
I made a batch. It's mighty tasty on my finger. I have a rack of ribs I pulled out of the freezer for the first cook. I didn't have any malt vinegar but added extra ACV to make up for it.
I’ve been using the Neely’s BBQ sauce recipe (from the food network) for years. I happily eat it with a spoon. Now I’m gonna make yours, and that’s gonna be one more awesome tool in my cooking shed. Thank you! It looks fantastic!!
Just made two bottles. Got sick of store bought, and this sauce is awesome! Doing it on chicken thighs on the Weber grill tonight. Great flavor and thick texture!
I never saw greaseproof paper anywhere near the chippers that wrapped in newspaper. I actually think the chips that got ink on them were tastier… who’s with me…?
I'll try this. I love chipolte. My go-to is yellow onion cooked down, apple cider vinegar, ketchup, salt, pepper, garlic powder, old bay, and brown sugar. Very simple :)
Just throwing this out there... I've been tweaking yours as well. The end result... not by much... I do this exactly, except for 3 things... I sub the oil for beef tallow. I sub the water for beef stock. I also double the black pepper and use extra extra fine black pepper. For me... that's the money shot. But yours us excellent as well and I wouldn't have gotten to mine without yours. You rock.
What's with all the hate and negative comments on this one. Geez, people need to lighten up, try something new and maybe get introduced to something new they might even like....smh
I've made this before and always make a double batch so I can give some to my friends. Everyone I've shared it with raves about it. (I don't strain out the onion mixture and use a blender. I like the extra bite it provides).
I’ve been following your channel for a long time since you were in the other kitchen and you had hair and Sargent Gilbert was smaller. And I have to say I’ve made a few of what I’ve seen you make and I appreciate how you explain things in a way that still make it fun to make stuff. Thank you and as always keep kicking and slapping your fridge.
Good recipe Sonny. I tend to doctor store bought with similar ingredients. Only difference is that I use fish sauce rather than soy, and lemon juice rather than the malt vinegar.
Sonny I've been with you from the softly spoken days. You're the best RUclips chef my a mile (why you hate celery tho??). So happy to see you with nearly 2 mil followers. Keep it up!
I also grew up 10 minutes away from you bro ! I lived in Rohnert park , and Cotati , most of my life , I still own a business in Sonoma County! Wish I would have known you back when I was living there ! I’m a total foody ! I’m happy for your success ! Keep up the good work !
I made it exactly as you did. Incredible. If you were ever to want to teach someone the idea of "balanced flavors," this would be the thing to do it with. Within milliseconds it shifts from "too sweet" to "too spicy" to "too vinegary" and then blends all together in perfect harmony.
I’ve made this recipe a few times since you first posted it in your video about making hot dogs gourmet. My whole family loves it and the saved onions are great on burgers, chicken sandwiches and sausages.
You might be watching this video and be like "yea but is it really that good, is it worth the effort"? I just made this sauce and it is everybit as good as he says. Honestly a new favourite that will always have a place in my fridge. The bits left in the strainer - i just blended them with a few cubes of butter and some olive oil and now have some chicken thighs marinating in it. ❤
I love that you make your own. Im also very picky about my BBQ Sauce. Order some Pauline's BBQ Sauce. It has about 20 ingredients all of which are fantastic. Its a small family run company here in Montana. Order some today !!!
Adding soya and all those powders really make a great sauce. I made few liters of it alreredy..adding smoked plums is a game changer tho! Or subbing chipotle for plums for those who are sensitive to heat... Amazing
Fish and Chips are still served in newspaper here in New Zealand. We just use a single unprinted sheet for the internal 'wrap'. Can't beat tearing a hole in your fish n chips to have a cheeky feed while walking home from the pub.
I noticed when I bought my last bottle of bbq sauce how it never hit the mark. I added malt vinegar or wine vinegar and it improved the taste immensely. I am sure it probably isn’t as good as this recipe but it worked for me in a pinch!
I made your BBQ sauce after watching the video and it's delicious! I expected it to be much more tangy/sour with the two vinegars, but it's balanced and everything works in harmony. I have been making a Steven Raichlen recipe for years that's very good too but I'll be making yours just as often now.
This is a delicious sauce. Works as well with brisket as it does with pork or chicken. Easy to make and my family love it. Everyone picks up on something different, my son gets the tomato, my wife gets the spice, my daughter gets the sugar/molasses and I get the vinegar. Thanks for the recipe, it’s a definite keeper.
This is a great recipe, very similar to the one I make. I use apple cider vinegar instead of malt vinegar and I like to add a half teaspoon of mustard powder. My secret is that I add a half teaspoon of cinnamon which really makes the sauce pop; it noticeably brightens the flavor from the chipotles. I know it seems odd but try it out.
The Dude: I love how you teach us to make our own spices like you do! You could be bottling and selling your creations like other RUclipsrs! (No issue with them…I buy their rubs/spices because I appreciate their videos) but still you show us! I made your rosemary salt recipe the other day…wonderful!
The first time I made this, I used a can of the Goya chipotle in adobo and it was surprisingly mild, had to add some cayenne to get it to a medium heat. Making it the second time around with the Embasa brand and they are much spicier.
I get so tired of sweet BBQ sauce. I fell in love with the vinegary tasting sauces. I think it's Carolina style? I put it on almost everything! I've been looking for a good recipe for a homemade sauce for a long time so maybe I'll give this one a try!
I always like watching these types of videos to see how people do things and to see the unique touches. This one has the Malt vinegar. I may try that. I go pretty vinegar-heavy in my sauce, so swapping out half the apple cider vinegar wouldn't be an issue.
This recipe looks pretty good. I've been making one for years that is vinegar based and thin so makes a great marinade. Can also be brushed on as you grill and is excellent as a dipping sauce for beef, pork, chicken.
There has only been 1 or 2 bbq sauces in store that I found pretty decent. Usually, for my bbq, I do a hot dry rub, spray it with an apple juice and apple cider vinegar mix and for some sweet, I finish it with some dark amber honey.
I hope they come out amazing. Toss in some bourbon, which will give it a nice smokey flavor. The alcohol boils off. You can also add some lemon or lime, which 'brightens' up the flavor. Happy cooking! And Happy Birthday to your Mom! 😄
Did a double take, I know ThatDude from somewhere. Sure enough, it was Sonny! Really great meeting them, thank you for the photo, all the questions you asked me, and complimenting my weddng ring. So on to this sauce, chipotle and malt vinegar are some of my favorite ingredients! This sounds delish. I am going to make some extra saucy wings. Cheers to you Sonny dude, best of the nite, you made my day.
I’m going to definitely try this. I have a small bbq business. Mostly catering and festivals. I’m always looking for unique condiments. Also love English malt vinegar on fries (chips) 👍
That's about exactly how I make mine. Though I'll add another sweet component, like Coke or Dr. Pepper, but I think my favorite is blueberry pie filling, with a tiny hint of cinnamon and nutmeg. I started making it without the chipotles in adobo and it was good, but once I figured that little trick out it really elevated it. The spice and smoke is perfect.
I made this sauce following the recipe exactly. I like spicy food very much, my wife doesn’t. This sauce is pretty spicy I have used it on several different meats so far , just a little is needed to enhance the food you don’t need a bunch of it all over the food. Next time I will try using 1/2 can of the peppers. I really like this sauce, thanks for sharing this recipe. 👍👍
4:42 I just buy ketchup in a glass bottle like this, use the ketchup in the process, rinse the glass and fill the bottle with this amazing sauce. I had to substitute some ingredients: golden syrup (the dark german kind: sugar beet syrup) for molasses, dark rice vinegar for malt vinegar, apple vinegar for cider vinegar and fried onion from the jar for onion powder but the result is overwhelming! Hat's off to you Dude, this sauce has now become canon for me!
I've made a lot of KC sauce over the years. It's leagues ahead of what you buy in the store. Chery and apple are really good ways to make a red sauce. I made yours the other day and it's replaced all of my others. UNBELIEVABLY GOOD! If you hold the adobo out until the end you can manage the heat that way.
MAde this sauce today. My son is an absolute BBQ sauce fiend. Puts it on everything he eats. He loved it and loaded his burger with the onion and peppers, then more sauce. Gotta admit there was a devious sense of satisfaction scraping the label off the sweet B Rays bottle and filling it with your Chipotle sauce. Thanks again for all you show us.
I can't wait to make this! What catsup and molasses brands do you use? For years, I've been using Hunt's Original as a base for my sauce, but yours sounds so much better.
I will definitely try this. I'm with you on the store-bought stuff. Blech! I always make my own. I have a go-to recipe that may not be as spicy as yours (no chipotle). Also with you on the malt vinegar! I put it on pizza. Delish!
Please go make this and report back to the comments section! HAPPY COOKING!

I like using existing sauces and churching them up with different flavors. I start with a bottle of Austin's Own medium (green label). I put it in a pot and add 1/4 cup bourbon, 1/4 cup OJ and about 1/3 of a bunch of cilantro, chopped fine. Simmer for 20 mins, and you're all set.
“Good old fashioned water” 😂😂😂
My day is made.
You mean like from the hose?
The highlight of this recipe is the leftover onions!! Can’t express enough how good these are. I put them on homemade moose brats with a good stone ground mustard and it is next level . Thank you for such a great recipe.
Yo I for sure thought you'd blend that, but but but! After you strain it. Blend what's left and add it back.
Will definitely have to try this, though since I'm a capsaicin fiend that's less concerned with the color of the sauce I'll probably blend the peppers and onions into the final product. Do you also have a recipe for a mustard-based BBQ sauce?
Mmmm mustard based BBQ sounds so good.
Not bad. I will roast or smoke some of the veg prior, with a couple mushrooms for that size batch. Also one anchovy. Ups the umami and richness.
I've also added caper brine, just a quarter teaspoon to a batch like this, as part of the vinegar. These subtle tweaks are how you can make it your own, take one of the ingredients and replace just part of it with something similar. The easiest is probably instead of a full onion, half an onion and two shallots. Halve the oil and use beef tallow. Halve the soy and use Worchestershire. You are the boss of your BBQ sauce.

Try Q39. Did a blind taste test with a large group of people trying everything from sweet to heat, vinegar based and smoky. Q39 was the perfect balance and had a perfect kiss of smoke that complimented bbq so well.
I recently made.your Rosemary Salt! Changed my life! Thank you!!! Will be trying this one next! 💜💜💜
I made a batch. It's mighty tasty on my finger. I have a rack of ribs I pulled out of the freezer for the first cook. I didn't have any malt vinegar but added extra ACV to make up for it.
Spray your measuring vessel with a cooking spray prior to measuring honey, and it will slide right out. No muss, no fuss.
The dude can cook mediocrely😂
Love the idea of spraying a measuring cup before putting honey in it! Brilliant
Dust of flour works too
I’ve been using the Neely’s BBQ sauce recipe (from the food network) for years. I happily eat it with a spoon. Now I’m gonna make yours, and that’s gonna be one more awesome tool in my cooking shed. Thank you! It looks fantastic!!
I also make The Neely’s BBQ sauce.
I despise store bought bbq sauce as well; this one is going into my fridge! 😍
We like this so much, I'm going to make a big batch and process it to make it shelf stable.
Dr pepper and cherries make a super good BBQ sauce.
I did this and it was amazeballs! My wife really doesn't like BBQ Sauce in general and I won her over with it.
@@zudosmg yea that's pretty much how ai discovered a recipe that includes the two. It is tasty and super easy to make.
Might have to try that
Root beer works well, too!
It does, gotta find a cane sugar dr pepper for it IMHO
Just made two bottles. Got sick of store bought, and this sauce is awesome! Doing it on chicken thighs on the Weber grill tonight. Great flavor and thick texture!
England used to wrap up chips in a layer of greaseproof paper _before_ wrapping in newspapers.
The ink would never touch the food!
Not where I lived they didn't.
never did that at ours always straight into the news paper.
@@MattSquirrell north?
I never saw greaseproof paper anywhere near the chippers that wrapped in newspaper.
I actually think the chips that got ink on them were tastier… who’s with me…?
lol ive seen people with ink all over their faces where theyve been licking the paper
I'll try this. I love chipolte. My go-to is yellow onion cooked down, apple cider vinegar, ketchup, salt, pepper, garlic powder, old bay, and brown sugar. Very simple :)
Just throwing this out there... I've been tweaking yours as well. The end result... not by much...
I do this exactly, except for 3 things...
I sub the oil for beef tallow. I sub the water for beef stock. I also double the black pepper and use extra extra fine black pepper.
For me... that's the money shot. But yours us excellent as well and I wouldn't have gotten to mine without yours.
You rock.
My grandpa always told me molasses was what the last mole out of the molehill smells
I don't get it ?
@@ryansturm5959 Mole asses, molasses, get it?
@@ryansturm5959 me either just thought someone else may and explain it?
Read it slower 😂. The last mole would be looking at the ass of the mole in front of him.... mole-asses....
The recipe I've settled on is super similar, but I feel like my balance is a little off here and there. Excited to give this a try!
What's with all the hate and negative comments on this one. Geez, people need to lighten up, try something new and maybe get introduced to something new they might even like....smh
I've made this before and always make a double batch so I can give some to my friends. Everyone I've shared it with raves about it. (I don't strain out the onion mixture and use a blender. I like the extra bite it provides).
My mother lived her entire life without saying chipotle.
Same here that flavor sucks !!!!
😂😅🤣
The moment he used premade ketchup, I just ignored the rest. Well, honestly, when he mentioned Chipotle, I already didn't have great expectations.
Have you tried Simply??. it's real cane sugar and 40s style simple ingredients
But it good
I’ve been following your channel for a long time since you were in the other kitchen and you had hair and Sargent Gilbert was smaller. And I have to say I’ve made a few of what I’ve seen you make and I appreciate how you explain things in a way that still make it fun to make stuff. Thank you and as always keep kicking and slapping your fridge.
It drives me nuts when people say "Chip ole tay".
The way he said his mother says it really had me LOL!!!
When I worked at Subway we had a lady who would always ask for Rih-poh-lay sauce.
Good recipe Sonny. I tend to doctor store bought with similar ingredients. Only difference is that I use fish sauce rather than soy, and lemon juice rather than the malt vinegar.
Cup a coke, cup of ketchup and a couple shots of hot sauce. Great BBQ sauce in a pinch. Easy to make, and not to bad.
Your comment has nothing to do with anything. Make your own RUclips channel recipe and see how many followers you have.
Sonny I've been with you from the softly spoken days. You're the best RUclips chef my a mile (why you hate celery tho??). So happy to see you with nearly 2 mil followers. Keep it up!
I blended and then sieved out the solids. I mixed the solids w india relish, sweet relish would work. Makes a great picadillo reliah
I also grew up 10 minutes away from you bro ! I lived in Rohnert park , and Cotati , most of my life , I still own a business in Sonoma County! Wish I would have known you back when I was living there ! I’m a total foody ! I’m happy for your success ! Keep up the good work !
I made it exactly as you did. Incredible. If you were ever to want to teach someone the idea of "balanced flavors," this would be the thing to do it with. Within milliseconds it shifts from "too sweet" to "too spicy" to "too vinegary" and then blends all together in perfect harmony.
Just made some. Wow, will continue to make this sauce for ever and for friends. Thank you for sharing.
I’ve made this recipe a few times since you first posted it in your video about making hot dogs gourmet. My whole family loves it and the saved onions are great on burgers, chicken sandwiches and sausages.
You might be watching this video and be like "yea but is it really that good, is it worth the effort"? I just made this sauce and it is everybit as good as he says. Honestly a new favourite that will always have a place in my fridge. The bits left in the strainer - i just blended them with a few cubes of butter and some olive oil and now have some chicken thighs marinating in it. ❤
I love that you make your own. Im also very picky about my BBQ Sauce. Order some Pauline's BBQ Sauce. It has about 20 ingredients all of which are fantastic. Its a small family run company here in Montana. Order some today !!!
Adding soya and all those powders really make a great sauce. I made few liters of it alreredy..adding smoked plums is a game changer tho! Or subbing chipotle for plums for those who are sensitive to heat... Amazing
I made it... added a little ginger and lemon... only 2ish ounces of chipotle... finger licking good.
I made your bbq sauce and love it. I also save the leftovers. I’ve used them in many meals already. Delish.
Just two days ago I looked up your pulled pork sandwich video in order to find THIS recipe!! Dude you are amazing and I freaking LOVE this sauce!!
Also, just ordered the "And I'm Out" t-shirt!
Tried it today, blown away! Didn’t get molasses in Germany used sugar beet syrup instead and malt vinegar was substituted by balsamic vinegar.
Fish and Chips are still served in newspaper here in New Zealand. We just use a single unprinted sheet for the internal 'wrap'. Can't beat tearing a hole in your fish n chips to have a cheeky feed while walking home from the pub.
I noticed when I bought my last bottle of bbq sauce how it never hit the mark. I added malt vinegar or wine vinegar and it improved the taste immensely. I am sure it probably isn’t as good as this recipe but it worked for me in a pinch!
I made your BBQ sauce after watching the video and it's delicious! I expected it to be much more tangy/sour with the two vinegars, but it's balanced and everything works in harmony. I have been making a Steven Raichlen recipe for years that's very good too but I'll be making yours just as often now.
Your experience and knowledge make watching your videos priceless
Awesome recipe. I need more heat but that is easy to do. 👍👍
This is a delicious sauce. Works as well with brisket as it does with pork or chicken. Easy to make and my family love it. Everyone picks up on something different, my son gets the tomato, my wife gets the spice, my daughter gets the sugar/molasses and I get the vinegar. Thanks for the recipe, it’s a definite keeper.
Just made it again. Outstanding BBQ sauce. Great on steak sandwiches. The batch makes 1 litre of sauce.
This is a great recipe, very similar to the one I make. I use apple cider vinegar instead of malt vinegar and I like to add a half teaspoon of mustard powder. My secret is that I add a half teaspoon of cinnamon which really makes the sauce pop; it noticeably brightens the flavor from the chipotles. I know it seems odd but try it out.
Oh, that triggered a thought...how about some dark cocoa powder? Love the idea of cinnamon, too!
My recipe is similar, but I fry the onions and bacon grease to add some smoke.
Just made this! Added a bit more brown sugar to counter act the heat bit it's so delicious! Thanks, Sonny!
The Dude: I love how you teach us to make our own spices like you do! You could be bottling and selling your creations like other RUclipsrs! (No issue with them…I buy their rubs/spices because I appreciate their videos) but still you show us! I made your rosemary salt recipe the other day…wonderful!
I'm cooking it now. Smell is bliss! I substituted Maple 🍁 Syrup for the honey. Will report finished sauce.
You are my favorite cooking specialist..Thank You...
The first time I made this, I used a can of the Goya chipotle in adobo and it was surprisingly mild, had to add some cayenne to get it to a medium heat.
Making it the second time around with the Embasa brand and they are much spicier.
I get so tired of sweet BBQ sauce. I fell in love with the vinegary tasting sauces. I think it's Carolina style? I put it on almost everything! I've been looking for a good recipe for a homemade sauce for a long time so maybe I'll give this one a try!
I always like watching these types of videos to see how people do things and to see the unique touches. This one has the Malt vinegar. I may try that. I go pretty vinegar-heavy in my sauce, so swapping out half the apple cider vinegar wouldn't be an issue.
Wow, we were neighbors when you lived here! Love your videos! From Napa California
This recipe looks pretty good. I've been making one for years that is vinegar based and thin so makes a great marinade. Can also be brushed on as you grill and is excellent as a dipping sauce for beef, pork, chicken.
I'm literally making chipotle BBQ sauce today...for a mothers day BBQ we're hosting. It's VERY close to this recipe. It is amazing!
There has only been 1 or 2 bbq sauces in store that I found pretty decent. Usually, for my bbq, I do a hot dry rub, spray it with an apple juice and apple cider vinegar mix and for some sweet, I finish it with some dark amber honey.
Making this sauce today for my mom’s 60th bday on Sunday. Can’t wait to try this on baby back ribs and smoked chicken legs. Will report back!
I hope they come out amazing. Toss in some bourbon, which will give it a nice smokey flavor. The alcohol boils off. You can also add some lemon or lime, which 'brightens' up the flavor. Happy cooking! And Happy Birthday to your Mom! 😄
Well. What happened??
Did a double take, I know ThatDude from somewhere. Sure enough, it was Sonny! Really great meeting them, thank you for the photo, all the questions you asked me, and complimenting my weddng ring. So on to this sauce, chipotle and malt vinegar are some of my favorite ingredients! This sounds delish. I am going to make some extra saucy wings. Cheers to you Sonny dude, best of the nite, you made my day.
I’m going to definitely try this. I have a small bbq business. Mostly catering and festivals. I’m always looking for unique condiments. Also love English malt vinegar on fries (chips) 👍
That's about exactly how I make mine. Though I'll add another sweet component, like Coke or Dr. Pepper, but I think my favorite is blueberry pie filling, with a tiny hint of cinnamon and nutmeg.
I started making it without the chipotles in adobo and it was good, but once I figured that little trick out it really elevated it. The spice and smoke is perfect.
Hi from Australia! Made this BBQ sauce the other day and I will continue to do so. It is delicious
I made this sauce following the recipe exactly. I like spicy food very much, my wife doesn’t. This sauce is pretty spicy I have used it on several different meats so far , just a little is needed to enhance the food you don’t need a bunch of it all over the food. Next time I will try using 1/2 can of the peppers. I really like this sauce, thanks for sharing this recipe. 👍👍
4:42 I just buy ketchup in a glass bottle like this, use the ketchup in the process, rinse the glass and fill the bottle with this amazing sauce. I had to substitute some ingredients: golden syrup (the dark german kind: sugar beet syrup) for molasses, dark rice vinegar for malt vinegar, apple vinegar for cider vinegar and fried onion from the jar for onion powder but the result is overwhelming!
Hat's off to you Dude, this sauce has now become canon for me!
I've made a lot of KC sauce over the years. It's leagues ahead of what you buy in the store. Chery and apple are really good ways to make a red sauce. I made yours the other day and it's replaced all of my others. UNBELIEVABLY GOOD! If you hold the adobo out until the end you can manage the heat that way.
MAde this sauce today. My son is an absolute BBQ sauce fiend. Puts it on everything he eats. He loved it and loaded his burger with the onion and peppers, then more sauce. Gotta admit there was a devious sense of satisfaction scraping the label off the sweet B Rays bottle and filling it with your Chipotle sauce. Thanks again for all you show us.
Made this today. Absolutely delicious!
I can't wait to make this! What catsup and molasses brands do you use? For years, I've been using Hunt's Original as a base for my sauce, but yours sounds so much better.
You're right. Not many chefs can acutally utilise bitterness well.
I will definitely try this. I'm with you on the store-bought stuff. Blech! I always make my own. I have a go-to recipe that may not be as spicy as yours (no chipotle). Also with you on the malt vinegar! I put it on pizza. Delish!
